The characterization of a novel series of NPY-1 receptor antagonists derived from the 4-methylbenzimidazole 4 is described. Appropriate substitution on the piperidyl nitrogen of 4 led to systematic increases in Y-1 receptor affinity, to approximately 50-fold, and to the discovery of the importance of a second basic substituent.
